SCARAVELLI INSPIRED RETREAT
MAY 24 -31, 2025 WADI RUM, PETRA & DEAD SEA
with beautiful yogini Liz Warrington
The vast and tranquil expanse of the majestic desert sets the stage for a transformative Scaravelli-inspired retreat with Liz Warrington. In the embrace of this magical landscape, Liz's yoga becomes a gateway to awakening the spine, freeing the breath, and connecting with the grounding support beneath you—a liberation that sets your soul free. This journey invites you to forge an intimate relationship not only with the earth but also with the extraordinary desert that surrounds you and the divine space within.
Through Liz's experienced guidance, you embark on a profound exploration, dismantling any limiting beliefs that suggest separation and recognising that your body is a harmonious whole. Delve into gentle yet dynamic movements, moving toward postures that encourage the inclusion of every part of yourself. Feel the power of releasing on the outbreath and the revitalization on the inbreath, paving a path towards compassion and wholeness.
The Pink Spirit herd, with its intuitive movement, joins you on this transformative journey. Sandra Jelly facilitates a constellation guided by these magnificent beings, where forgotten or suppressed parts of yourself are remembered. Wisdom is harvested, and that which no longer serves you is released.
Embrace the unknown, allowing the expression of your true self. Witness the emergence of a more expansive version of yourself.
In the loving presence of Liz, Sandra, and the supportive group, you find a safe haven to explore the depths of your being. A compassionate circle is created, enabling you to surrender to your true, creative, and authentic self. Tap into the profound healing energy residing deep within you through breath, movement, and the reflections of the horses and donkey. Share your journey with others, gaining courage and trust in the realization that you are more than meets the eye.

REVIEW
“ Liz Warrington is an outstanding teacher. I loved her hands on approach and how she catered to all physical abilities within the group using gentle and thorough explanations. She taught yoga philosophy and meditation with kindness and relaxation, humour and thoughtfulness. As a trainee yoga teacher myself, I learned more from Liz in one short week than I had from my own instructors.”

“Liz is a rare precious gem of a yoga teacher. She is truly gifted not just as a yoga teacher but as craniosacral therapist. It’s the combination of these that bring such a healing quality to her teaching.Her wisdom and deep knowledge of the body and her ability to hold space for whatever arises for her students is so inspiring. Yoga with Liz comes straight from the heart and goes straight to the heart ”

About Scaravelli Inspired Yoga
Scaravelli-inspired yoga takes the focus of doing the poses and places it instead on cultivating a set of conditions that allow the body’s natural intelligence to awaken.
In addition to rest and undoing, we tune into rhythm brought about by the natural breath that invites the poses to come to us. Gone is the old paradigm of wanting to push or pull ourselves into shapes as we welcome a state of listening and waiting so we might go with and the body on a wave of release. A wave that has the potential to dissolve the ´I-ness´ and take us to the heart of yoga.
